Presentation Transcript

  1. Mg2+ uptake QTLs Hannah Itell and Eric Sawyer

  2. Biological roles for Mg2+ • chlorophyll • common cofactor (RNA pol, kinases, ATPases, …) • most Mg2+ is not free in cytoplasm (ATP/nucleotide-chelated or in organelles) < 2 mM chlorophyll a

  3. Biological roles for Mg2+ • vacuole: 3-13 mM Mg2+ • highest [Mg2+]: thylakoid lumen (30-50 mM), but importers unknown! • Mg2+ uptake hindered by acidic soils • Mg2+ deficiency can lead to Al3+ toxicity; transporter competition chlorophyll a

  4. Signs of Mg2+ deficiency • chlorophyll breakdown • impaired sugarmobilization • reduced growth, particularly roots

  5. Mg2+ biochemistry • Cation channels • MGT • MHX • Slow activating vacuolar channels (SVs) • MGT5 • MGT10 and FACCs (G) Bose et al. (2011)

  6. 1. Mg2+ channels (plasma membrane) • Hyperpolarization-activated • Depolarization-activated • Voltage-independent • Cyclic nucleotide-activated • Non-selective ion channels • AtCNGC10 (A. thaliana): mediates Mg2+ mobilization through the plant

  7. 2. Mg2+ Carrier Proteins (MGTs) • Magnesium (Mg2+) Transport Family • AtMGT1, 5, 7a, 9, 10 • Vary in affinity and sensitivity to Al3+ Plasma Membrane Mitochondria Chloroplast

  8. Candidate gene BLAST results AtCNGC10 AtMGT family
